I definitely related to your post! But, you're right, what is right now is the gift and to be cherished. That was a gift then and this now is a gift that I don't want to miss a minute of. Thank you for the sweet reminder!Maureen@Loving this Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01426574679254341507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-70546716565873466592011-12-06T12:15:50.404-05:002011-12-06T12:15:50.404-05:00Yes.

My son, now 8, is becoming more and more independent. Yes, he still needs his mommy, but not nearly as much as he did. Yes, he'll curl up in my lap, but he has way outgrown the space. Still, I hold him, not letting him slip off.<br /><br />So thankful for those moments and bank them in my memory account.<br /><br />What a sweet post from a loving mommy...Stefanie Brownhttp://www.upliftingwordsonline.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4419239976631731952.post-75670952437184811842011-12-06T08:56:11.412-05:002011-12-06T08:56:11.412-05:00I'm pretty sure this is my new favorite blog. ...I'm pretty sure this is my new favorite blog. I love your writing. I love that you capture holding your son "full in" your arms, but also illustrate how lovely it is right now. Your writing is beautiful, and encouraging.
